As to the whole business about terrorist threat coming from Mexico..please reconsider..its the islamic facists not poor mexicans. These people pick our fruit and clean our toilets they wish us no harm.

We have Nicaragua, soon we will have El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Mexico. One day, tomorrow or five years or fifteen years from now, we're going to take 5 to 10 million Mexicans and they are going into Dallas, into El Paso, into Houston, into New Mexico, into San Diego, and each one will have embedded in his mind the idea of killing ten Americans."

--Thomas Borge, Nicaraguan Interior Minister, as quoted in the Washington Times, March 27, 1985



And where is this Borge today...its been 22 years since he made that ridiculous statement. Do you really want to declare Mexico an enemy? Haven't we already enough of those? Goodness please take a course in enemy identification!

Do you really want to declare Mexico an enemy?

We've already declared their drug cartels an enemy. Have you read about the National Guard troops who were run out of their post on the border this week?

Guatemalan commandos, Mexican drug cartels and the U.S.
Frontera NorteSur

Mexico was jolted by revelations this week by Defense Secretary Gen. Ricardo Clemente Vega tying elite Guatemalan commandoes to a Mexican drug cartel operating on both sides of the US-Mexico border. In an appearance before the Mexican Senate, Gen. Clemente announced the detention of five Guatemalan nationals in Chiapas state earlier this month on arms and immigration law violations. The defense secretary said a probe was underway examining possible links between the men — all reputed to be members or ex-members of the Guatemalan army's counterinsurgency unit known as the Kabiles — and Los Zetas, the heavily armed enforcers of Mexico’s Tamaulipas-based Gulf Cartel.

My understanding is that he's one of the deditos [*little fingers*] for one of the nastier drug cartels. But you might look for him to turn up *here*, acting on behalf of his old boss again.

In the summer of 1984, Ronald Reagan offered photos of narcotrafficante Pablo Escobar and one of Borges' aides, Federico Vaughan, loading Escobar's coke onto a C-123 cargo plane.

I know that every American parent concerned about the drug problem will be outraged to learn that top Nicaraguan government officials are deeply involved in drug trafficking." "This picture, secretly taken at a military airfield outside Managua, shows Federico Vaughan, a top aide to one of the nine commandants who rule Nicaragua, loading an aircraft with illegal narcotics bound for the United States."

--President Ronald Reagan, 16 July 1986.

We aren't the ones invading them. Though it may come to that again, as in 1916. Whether or not I want it is immaterial; there it is.

Goodness please take a course in enemy identification!

Okay! Glad to oblige....
